In an engaging conversation with Morten Reitoft from INKISH, Sander Sondaal from Ricoh discussed the latest trends and developments in the printing industry, particularly focusing on the shift towards digital and inkjet printing solutions. Sander Sondaal highlighted Ricoh's journey since acquiring IBM's printing division in the early 2000s and its continuous innovation in printing technologies. A key topic was the shift in market dynamics from traditional offset to digital printing, driven by the need for high-quality, high-productivity solutions. Sander Sondaal also emphasized Ricoh's focus on continuous-fed inkjet solutions aimed at high-productivity sectors. He touched on the challenges of the analog or offset printing market and how digital printing offers a viable alternative. Ricoh's strategy includes providing solutions that cover various market needs, from high-end continuous-feed inkjet printers for long runs to toner printers for ultra-short runs. The conversation also covered the advancements in inkjet technology, making it suitable for a broader range of commercial print applications. Sondaal mentioned the importance of flexibility in printing solutions, catering to different market segments and customer needs. The recent developments in Ricoh's portfolio, including the Z75 and the new inkjet solutions, demonstrate their commitment to innovation. Sondaal further delved into the operational aspects of transitioning from traditional printing methods to modern digital solutions, outlining how Ricoh's technologies are designed to be user-friendly and accessible to a wider range of printing businesses. He concluded by discussing the competitive landscape of the printing industry and Ricoh's position in it, emphasizing collaboration and innovation as key drivers for future growth. This interview underscores the dynamic nature of the printing industry and Ricoh's adaptive strategies to meet evolving market demands, focusing on quality, productivity, and innovation. RICOH is one of the leading inkjet companies in the graphic arts segment. In this talk with Director Commercial Sales, Sander Sondaal, and Editor Morten B. Reitoft, they talk about the market, toner print, obviously the Z75, and the new continuous fed inkjet printer Pro VC80000. In a market that continues to develop and where inkjet becomes more and more choice for many PSPs, the new Pro VC80000 delivers 150 meters per minute, equal to about 10,000 B2 sheets (4+4) per hour, and on substrates up to 300gsm, and with precession and easy better than previous models. A super nice and intense conversation that hopefully gives you many answers to the newest member of the RICOH family - enjoy!

Today, Ricoh officially launched the new PRO Z75 to the market - a B2+ size water-based Inkjet printer. An amazing machine focusing on the Commercial print space, but with its print on substrates up to 600 microns, is also interesting for packaging printers. With 1200 x 1200 DPI and the ability to print up to 4500 sheets an hour, Ricoh has taken a huge step into the cut-sheet market with a machine that can compete with offset and toner-based printing. In this walkthrough, Sander Sondaal gives you an idea about how the machine has been built up and works - also with space for expansion in the future. All-in-all a super nice introduction to the PRO Z75. Thank you for having INKISH on-site with Realisaprint in Contes to learn and document :-)

Always interesting to understand a technology about the market it addresses - and in this interview, we ask whether the Pro Z75 addresses the existing toner market, the competition in the inkjet space, or even the offset space. Listen to Sander Sondaal to learn his perspective on this :-)

In this interview with Sander Sondaal, Editor Morten B. Reitoft asks questions that explain how the machine delivers. From the B2 sized drawers to options with pallet feeding, to the print technology inside the PRO Z75, and also for whom the machine is for. During the day you can see samples, more details of how the machines work, and more - so stay tuned!

Delivering a new and very anticipated machine is interesting, and in this interview with Sander Sondaal from Ricoh Europe, you will get insights about the journey. Why did it take longer time than anticipated? How does Sander see this in the market - which will also be dived deeper into in a separate film on INKISH - but listen, and enjoy! Soon we will also have the walkthrough we refer to in this film :-)

In this interview we talk to one of the owners of Realisaprint.com, Rafael Mari. Realisaprint delivers online print in France, North Italy, and Spain, with plans for even more countries. The entirely digital company decided to become a launch customer with Ricoh on their new Pro Z75 inkjet printer. In this interview, we discuss digital print, finishing, and how Realisaprint came to the Pro Z75 decision.

In the Ricoh PRO Z75 launch introduction, Sander Sondaal talks about partnerships and how important it is. Rafael Mari - one of the two founders of Realisaprint, joins the conversation and confirms how important a partnership is - and - well, listen and learn!

Nothing like friendly competition between the UK, Germany, and France being the most important markets for Ricoh in Europe - and seriously, all markets are important :-) In this interview with Jean-Manuel Jenn from Ricoh France, we learn more about Ricoh and how the market develops. Enjoy!

With a strong and dedicated focus on ROI, Rick Hess-Larsen in this session talk about why it's not always important to invest in the newest equipment. LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-hess-larsen-7905672/

In Mark Quest for American exhibitors, he, this time, finds a REAL American gentleman, Rick Brown from Fujifilm. In the conversation, they talk about the progress in technology since the last drupa - and more - enjoy!  

Though Editor Morten B. Reitoft is Danish, it's VERY unusual for him and INKISH to present Danish customers in Danish, but here we go with Richard Lodahl, the CEO of Reklametryk. The company specializes in high-quality luxury printing and is recognized for serving some of the biggest brands in Denmark. We have subtitled the story, so dig in and hear Richard Lodahl's considerations before deciding to buy a new printing press.

This is the 5th episode from Richard Askam's 'hand' and this is particularly interesting for many reasons. It's even interesting for reasons we couldn't predict. One of the most important subjects of the time is the environment. EU couldn't reach an agreement for binding goals in 2050. The US will not ratify the Paris treaty - and at the same time, global warming seems to be more and more evident. Storms, melting the ice, of course,​ seems distant in relation to your favorite print film channel. However, Richard Askam speculates over The Environment and what drives the discussion. A VERY good discussion and of course, you should participate in it!

Richard Askam is a speaker, a writer, and a man with an opinion. Rather than blindly following the conventions Richard Askam question the things that we often take for granted. In a world that moves faster and faster, we tempt to forget the importance of in-depth insights and considerations and it even spread to the decisions in life that really matters - like how are we supposed to communicate with each other. Enjoy Richard Askam Channel on INKISH.TV and start thinking!

When the Internet was introduced, many believed that the paperless society was a reality, but that wasn't the case. When the so-called financial crisis shattered the world in 2008 changes in the consumption of paper and print, many people started to consider weather print this time could set up the final sign - "RIP." Regardless of the forecasts print is absolutely not dead but may change faster than most understand. As always Richard Askam has an opinion - and you can learn from it here. Enjoy the Richard Askam Channel on INKISH.TV and start thinking!

In this second episode on the new Richard Askam Channel, host Richard Askam talks about "the dirty subject of money," and as usual his thought-provoking statements make you think. "All I have is just an opinion," have almost become a payoff for Richard Askam but this film is great to watch. Great to learn from. And Great to share. Enjoy the Richard Askam Channel on INKISH.TV and start thinking!

In this 4th Richard Askam episode, Richard talks about creating your own tribe. Of course, you know a tribe is, but how does that relates to your work, the printing industry, customers, and how to grow your business? Well - take a listen for yourself, listen, and learn. All you hear is just an opinion - but the opinion of Richard Askam is a strong opinion that hopefully will seed your mind and bring you forward. We love!

In this interview, the roles are a bit mixed up, as Richard Askam was a moderator at the Fujifilm Award event the day before he was reporting for INKISH at Drupa - but here is what came out of it - Not bad at all! :-) LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-askam-2480b48/

Does HP have a responsibility for driving the entire industry? This is a slightly rephrased question, but nevertheless, global marketing HP Industrial print Richa Panda explains how and why it's important to have a leadership role in the industry—and how HP spends a lot of time segmenting the company's customers to ensure the best possible communication. A super interesting interview—enjoy!

Just a year ago HP announced the PageWide Web Press T250 HD with revolutionary Brilliant ink. The commercial printing industry in Europe has been quick to adopt this solution. Please join HP and our customer Simon Cooper, GM of Solopress, to hear more about how the T250HD is changing Commercial Print and the role its playing in helping Solopress to revolutionize their business.

Hunkeler Innovationdays is around the corner, so when we got the chance to talk to Reto Zaugg from Hunkeler, obviously a topic to discuss. However, we also got a chance to talk about how seamlessly Hunkeler and Horizon integrate into the new Stitchliner Mark V shown at Horizon Finishing First event. But take a listen yourself!

The presentation should briefly show where the necessity comes from that offset printers already have to change today and how digital printing technologies (inkjet) can support this change. It should also show where the challenges were and where we are today with this decision.

We were supposed to have an exclusive walkthrough of the 200K at LabelExpo, but as HP asked it to be rescheduled at the last minute, we couldn't change our program - so Editor Morten B. Reitoft gives you a short update. Link to the INKISH V12 film from Israel you can find here: https://inkish.tv/inkish-video/v12/
